Sometimes conversion problems are hard to really grasp. In this case, let me help you.
By definition, 1 inch equals 25.4 millimeters. With that information we can convert any length from US to metric. Here is how to do it.
We know that there are 12 inches in a foot. That means that we can multiply the metric equivalent by 12 also. So 1 foot equals 12 x 25.4 or 304.8 millimeters.
We can now calculate how much 12 feet is in millimeters by multiplying the previous result for 1 foot by 12, or 304.8 x 12 equals 3657.6 millimeters.
You can use this method to calculate any conversion. Good luck.
